The profile and persistence of clinically critical antibiotic resistance genes and human pathogenic bacteria in manure-amended farmland soils.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: Microbial contamination in farmlands is usually underestimated and understudied. Different fertilization times and manure origins might introduce and change the microorganism diversity in farmland soils and thus might influence the abundance and persistence of microbial contamination including antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), human bacterial pathogens (HBPs), and virulence factor genes (VFGs). Methods: A 0.5-/1.5-year fertilization experiment was performed, and metagenomic sequencing was conducted to quantify microbial contamination. The resistomes of soil samples revealed that ARGs against antibiotics which were extensively used in veterinary medicine as well as clinically critical ARGs (CCARGs) persisted in manure-amended soils. Here the extended-spectrum beta-lactamase and carbapenemase bla genes, the high-level mobilized colistin resistance gene mcr, the tigecycline resistance gene tet(X), and the vancomycin resistance gene van, all of which can circumvent the defense line of these "last-resort" antibiotics were selected to investigate CCARG pollution in farm environments. Results: A total of 254 potential HBPs and 2106 VFGs were detected in soil samples. Overall, our results revealed that (1) farmland soils could serve as a reservoir of some important bla, mcr, tet(X), and van gene variants, (2) the diversity and relative abundance of HBPs and VFGs increased significantly with incremental fertilization times and were discrepant among different manureamended soils, and (3) most CCARGs and VFGs coexisted in HBPs. Disscusion: The results of this study suggested a biological risk of manure in spreading antimicrobial resistance and pathogenicity.
